Transport phenomena in tokamak plasmas strongly limit the particle and energy confinement and represent a crucial obstacle to controlled thermonuclear fusion. Within the vast framework of transport studies, three topics have been tackled in the present the ...
Due to the opening or closing operation of circuit breakers and disconnected switches in gas-insulated substations (GIS), a very strong transient wave process can be generated along the three-phase transmission system and transient electromagnetic field ca ...
Due to the turning on or off operation of the circuit breakers and the disconnected switches, a strong electromagnetic interference in gas-insulated substations (GIS) is commonly generated. The transient wave process with a very wide frequency range can ge ...
The preparative experimental and analysis work as well as the code development for testing the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) TFMC, one of the large projects of the ITER research and development programme, is described. The expecte ...
The European Home Team is responsible for the design, the fabrication and the test of the Toroidal Field Model Coil (TFMC) of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), Within this task, three full size samples had to be fabricated by ind ...
Prototype conductors for the ITER magnets have been tested extensively in the SULTAN facility at CRPP in the last decade. The in-depth characterization of the high current carrying conductors provided a valuable feedback in the design, with performance opt ...
The JET experimental campaign has focused on studies in support of the ITER physics basis. An overview of the results obtained is given for the reference ELMy H mode and advanced scenarios, which in JET are based on internal transport barriers. JET studies ...
Extensive simulations are performed to investigate effects of electron cyclotron instabilities on the gyrotron beam quality, using two-dimensional axisymmetric particle-in-cell (PIG) codes. Both electrostatic and electromagnetic models, as well as realisti ...
